WOMT 100
WOMT Radio in Manitowoc, WI, is proudly celebrating a
century
of broadcasting excellence!
On November 8, 1926, at 5:30 p.m., founder Francis Kadow signed on-air for the very first time from the second floor of the Mikadow Theatre on Washington Street. Since that time, WOMT Radio has continually served as a trusted voice for news, sports, community information and entertainment. To honor this milestone and commemorate 100 years of live, local radio, join WOMT Radio in a year-long anniversary celebration throughout 2026 featuring special events, contests and community experiences.
